Peace of not many years we forgot those unheard. Who gave their all? in wars we fight one after another? Goodbye, we think we have said; Thank you we decide we have said, enough. To ease our common conscience. But, isn't it all too late? When the cold is written on the paper about the brains in pieces? Killed by deaf ears passing, ignoring the screams, down to the next generation? Going unanswered. Often unmentioned. We stand hand on heart on Memorial day. We salute with abandon. Thinking we give a tribute worthy of the sacrifice given. Those who screamed into deaf ears abandoned. Alone . They gave their all.
